PUMPKIN RICE PUDDING
This is one of my absolute favorite rice puddings. It tastes exactly like pumpkin pie and makes a really great breakfast dish! Try it with cooked brown rice and substitute dried cranberries for the raisins, if desired.

THIS is an old recipe my mother used. With seven children in the house, she made larger quantities, but I adjusted the ingredients to be just right for the two of us. Its "snowy" look makes this a perfect dessert for the winter months. -Ruth Ann Stelfox, Raymond, Alberta

Steps:
- To make the bananas brulée, quarter the bananas lengthwise (peel on) and rub into sugar to coat thoroughly.
- Remove peel and place on cooling rack over several layers of foil. (Don't try this on your dining room table.).
- Don your safety goggles and fire up your torch. Hold the torch so that the very tip of the flame barely touches the banana, and move quickly back and forth until the sugar melts, turns brown, and bubbles. As soon as it looks like caramel, move on. You know you've got it down when a solid, glasslike sheet of gold (no graininess) has formed on the banana.

Tips:
- Use a ripe banana and pumpkin: A ripe banana and pumpkin will be sweeter and have a more intense flavor.
- Don't overcook the rice: Overcooked rice will be mushy and bland. Cook the rice according to the package directions, or until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it.
- Use a good quality vanilla extract: A good quality vanilla extract will add a rich, deep flavor to the rice pudding.
- Don't skip the brûléed topping: The brûléed topping adds a delicious caramelized flavor to the rice pudding.
- Serve the rice pudding warm or cold: Rice pudding can be served warm or cold. If you are serving it warm, let it cool for a few minutes before brûléeing the topping.
